Are you a creative soul in a corporate role?
Me too. In fact, there are plenty of us.
Like many of you, I've often felt like a "creative soul trapped in a corporate role."
That’s why I created Creative Soul Projects; to inspire and help people to pursue their creative projects, and keep that creative dream alive. It’s also a place for me to share my own creative projects, process and ideas.
For many of us, our creative spirit and skills and qualities are often stifled or underutilised in a purely corporate context. This is a space to explore ideas, hints, tips, projects and more to keep that creative dream alive.
What is Creative Soul Projects?
This is a place for anyone ready to unlock their potential in communication, creativity, and learning for a richer, more fulfilling personal life. Here, you'll find inspiration, guidance, and community to help you:
Communicate authentically and express yourself fully in all aspects of your life.
Unleash your unique creativity through personal projects, new hobbies, and imaginative exploration (and yes, I'll share my own creative journeys with you!).
Embrace lifelong learning for personal enrichment, skill development, and a growth mindset that extends beyond any job title.
Whether you're looking to start a new creative pursuit, improve your personal connections, or simply cultivate a more curious and vibrant approach to life, Creative Soul Projects is here to support your journey.
CSP started as a side project for publishing content that wasn’t strictly “business as usual” for my leadership coaching company Cultivated Management.
It has since grown into a separate and distinct (although with some overlaps) family project; my three sons are all contributing to this project now too.
Creative Soul Projects is a weekly newsletter (Thu) about keeping creative dreams alive.
A Family Affair
As mentioned, my three boys are all contributing to this project too.
They have taken on various roles and given themselves job titles from Creative Director to Creative Leader :)
They are looking at marketing, advertising, content creation and branding, as well as Merchandising!
Expect some fun stuff.
We’re doing this to help them explore their own creativity, communication and learning.
My eldest wants to study advertising and branding at University - what’s more effective than to actually have real-world experience of growing the CSP brand?
My youngest wants to experiment with products and merchandise, and make money! What better way to explore this interest (he’s only 11 so he may change his mind), than to actually create products and merchandise?
My middle son - well, he’s not sure yet but he helps out with the YouTube channel.

About Me?
Hi, I’m Rob Lambert.
I live in Winchester, Hampshire, UK but am originally from Sheffield, Yorkshire. I’m married with three sons.
When I was younger I always wanted to be a film director, writer and photographer.
I used to make bad films on an 8mm camera and yield an old Olympus film camera everywhere. I spent my evenings and weekends writing, filming, shooting photos and dreaming of publishing and making visual art.
Yet I fell into the usual path so many of us take - get a steady job in corporate and settle down.
I spend a lot of time exploring mixed media communication, driving old cars and spending time with my family.
